I had radium223 treatment last Thursday for my prostate cancer that has spread to my bones. The pain I was having just seems to have increased since then. Is this common, and if so when is it likely to decrease. Currently mixing co-codamol and paracetamol to help with the pain. This helps but just  fora short while. Sometimes its worst sitting for long periods, and then also gets bad when walking even comparatively short distances. Should i give the treatment a little longer (adter all it's only three days) to kick in?

Be really interested to hear from others having radium223 for this and sharing their experiences.

Hi my dad is now 5 into 6 treatments and his health in general has declined we believe due to the treatment he can hardly walk due to muscle weakness he was fine prior to the treatment he is in pain lower back and is very tempted not to have the sixth. It had been a few weeks since I saw him and must say got the shock of my life not nice to see.  Our family has one question which never gets answered will his mobility come back?  Thanks guys
